Show Notes
Lawrences water and sewer rates surged, with millions missing from a key construction fund. Accounting errors and unexplained cash drops led to a 9% average annual increase since 2022. Residents felt the impact with a 10.25% rate hike in 2024. City officials attribute the funds growth to future projects, but Commissioner Kristine Polian advocates for a forensic audit to build trust and prevent future rate hikes.
